LOS ANGELES (AP) - An elderly man whose car roared through a farmers market, hitting more than 70 people and killing 10, told police he did everything he could to stop, according to a tape recording of the interview.
"I tried to take the control knob and jam it into park. Everything. Anything that I thought would stop the action of the car," George Russell Weller told a California Highway patrol investigator and a Santa Monica police detective hours after the July 16, 2003, crash.
A tape of the police interview was played Wednesday at Weller's trial in Superior Court.
